SIX ALEXANDRIA
COUNCILMEN QUIT
Breach Is Caused Over Fight Concerning Resigna
tion of Member of Board Man Goes to Peni
tentiary for Two Years on Stabbing Charge.
WASHINGTON TIMES BUKEAU.
ALEXANDRIA- VA.. JAN. 13.
The breach between the two factions
of the common council of Alexandria,
Which has JVUltvl In a iHnirnTviitit
with the board of aldermen, preventing J
joint sessions of the two bodies to fill
vacancies in the city offices, was fur
ther widened last night when six mem
bers of the body Smith, Spinks. Mar
shall. Bryan. Burke, and BIrrell In
censed at the action of the majority
in accepting the resignation or Coun
cilman Tatcs, on the night of Its pres
entation, left council without a quorum.
The action of the six members fol
lowed a stormy session of the lower
board, wnlch, was"prec!pitated immedi
ately on the: J convening of council.
Councilman Charles; B. Swan, of the j
Fourth ward, recently gave an Inter
view to the- newspapers that he would
tender his resignation at last night's
meeting, but Instead of Mr. Swan re
signing, as he had promised, tho resig
nation of Mr. Yates, from the First
ward, was presented.
A motion to lay the resignation on the
table was lost and eight members of
the board voted to accept the resigna
tion and proceed with the election of
a successor to Mr. Yates. The minor
ity made the claim that this would be
unfair to them as they had received
no notice that there would be a va
cancy from the first ward and wished
time to consult with the voters from
that ward before electing its repre
sentative. When it became apparent
that the majority was in control and,
after the ruling by President Brumback
that nine members constituted a
quorum, the six members withdrew In
a body, leaving council without a
quorum for the transaction of business.

Kecping. typewriting anu wie una are
ways in which a student can get school
credit for home or office work allied to

plished outside, the student will really

new system has been carefully safe
guarded and subject to restrictions in
suring Its efficacy, it Is believed.
